Describes how to attach a boot volume to a compute instance on your Roving Edge Infrastructure device.

Note

You can attach a boot volume only to a stopped compute instance.

1. Open the navigation menu and select Compute > Instances. The Instances page appears. All instances are listed in tabular form.
2. Select a State from the list to limit the instances displayed to that state.

4. Click Boot Volume under Resources. The Boot Volumes page appears, displaying the boot volumes in tabular form.
5. Click the Actions menu () and click Attach Boot Volume. Confirm when prompted.
You can start the instance when the boot volume's state is Attached.
Use the oci compute boot-volume-attachment attach command and required parameters to attach a boot volume to a compute instance on your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices:
```
oci compute boot-volume-attachment attach --boot-volume-id boot_volume_ocid --instance-id instance_ocid [OPTIONS]
```
Refer to your Roving Edge Infrastructure device's CLI help for a list of parameters available for this command. See Accessing Command Line Interface Help.
